    GL Polish Roo advice

    Hi! I recently acquired a young golden laced polish frizzle rooster. I really love the coloring of the Tolbunts and Candy Corn - I was wondering what hens I should breed him with next season in order to breed towards those colors?

    Chickens or bust

    As an adult, have had chickens for 15+ years. Adore them all - we have a Heintz 57 flock - and we're particularly enjoying Houdans right now. What an affectionate breed! We're at 14 ladies right now who keep our large family in eggs, for the most part. Except now. When it's hot at Hades here in...

    Twisted toes Polish Maran

    Our little baby Flo has crooked toes. We got it 2 days ago and I noticed today the toes on one foot are curved/ crooked. I am fairly new to this chicken thing and I'm not sure if there's anything I can do for Flo. Flo is a copper maran mixed with Polish.

    Saddle Feathers?

    I feel like I'm starting to see some dark and pointy saddle feathers coming in on this polish chicken. Can anyone confirm if what I'm seeing is saddle feathers? For reference this is a 10 week old chicken.

    9 Week Polish - Roo or Hen?

    Hey Everyone, I know Polish are notoriously difficulty to sex, but I'm hoping some experts here might have a clue for my 9 week old Polish. I've had the worst of luck with roo's this year so I'm crossing my fingers that maybe this little one is a hen. What do you guys think? Sorry for not...

    Polish babies

    Enjoy these pics of my silly new babies, born May 20. I know their tell tale crest shape will indicate male/female when they're older. But is there anything else to look for? We haven't had Polish before now.

    Tolbunt Polish Genders

    I have just purchased four Tolbunt Polish, I'm unsure of how to sex them as none seem to have any comb or wattles. They seem to have feathers in their crests as well as around the backs of their necks growing in which in my mind means roosters. Needing another opinion. (Pictures are all of the...

    Splayed leg or something else?

    This little Polish chick hatched 6/5. It was having trouble hatching after being pipped for almost 24 hours so I did help it hatch. Its left leg doesn’t seem to be very strong. We currently have a straw/hair tie set up trying to help but it still doesn’t seem to be helping. Today is the first...

    Bantam Cochin hen / Polish roo mix

    Hi all! I had my first broody hen and while she had 5 eggs, only one made it to hatching. I learned a lot through the experience. The broody hen was my bantam Cochin and the one egg that hatched was actually her egg! My roo is a Polish. I’m curious what you all think of this chick as I haven’t...

    Golden Laced Polish, hen or roo?

    Golden laced Polish from feed store, labeled as pullets. 6 weeks old. Is Cheeto a girl or boy? Hair might say boy. Comb and waddle both have a scratch on them, but what do we think besides the scratches? The air is very dry here, which may be contributing to scratches and retained sheathes...
